For example, users who trained with our arithmetic exercise Raindrops for at least 10 sessions can solve math problems faster and more accurately (p<.001, two-tailed t-Test). Lumosity brain exercises are designed to improve processing speed by challenging users to gradually increment the rate of other cognitive processes. Processing speed is considered by some to be a bottleneck to other cognitive processes, and it is therefore a focus of Lumosity training.

Processing speed determines how quickly one can perceive and interpret information, and then begin to act appropriately.

More importantly, the trained subjects also improved on independent tests of working memory (p<.01, two-tailed t-Test), which were not part of the training, while the control group showed no change upon retesting.įor more details, download the white paper or view the scientific poster presentation. Subjects who trained with several of the Lumosity brain exercises on a daily basis for 30 days improved on the memory exercises. Working memory capacity of 23 individuals was tested before and after training. Research presented at the Bay Area Neuroscience Gathering in San Francisco, CA shows that the Lumosity brain games improve working memory.

Working memory is critical in many cognitive processes including reasoning, problem solving and language. One of the most important types of memory is known as working memory, which is used for temporarily storing and manipulating information. It can be a challenge to store and retrieve all the information we need to remember, even if it is just for a short period of time.
